Global Mobile VoIP Market 2016-2020

About the Mobile Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Market

VoIP functions on broadband networks using packet switched telephone networks (PSTNs), unlike traditional calls on circuit switched networks. PSTNs are more efficient than legacy systems (circuited switched networks), and information can be routed in packets over optimized paths. Mobile VoIP allows IP calls over mobile networks (3G/LTE) or fixed networks, such as wireless hotspots, Wi-Fi, and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) networks. Mobile VoIP bypasses the originating mobile carrier's telephony network and allows inexpensive calls on mobiles through the Internet providers. It also offers low-cost international calls, and roaming calls, without the need for extensive infrastructures such as PCs and DSL modems. Therefore, it is a threat to traditional mobile voice revenues. Despite the many benefits of mVoIP, the disadvantages include poor speech quality and dropped calls due to latency or packet loss in the Internet service provider's network.

Technavio’s analysts forecast the global mobile voice over internet protocol (VoIP) market to grow at a CAGR of 28.47% during the period 2016-2020.
